Since I starting writing for GeekMom I’ve received some really cool things in the mail, but none of have been as cool as my hardcover copy of Avengers vs. X-Men. This edition includes the entire 12 issue mini-series along with the AVX: VS mini-series, the Infinite Comics (first time in print) and Point One and puts them in once place to enjoy for hours of reading. Also included in this edition is a digital copy and, for me, that makes the retail price (around $75) worth it.

I’m still a newbie to the comic book world and Avengers vs. X-Men is my first jump into Marvel comic book storytelling.

The X-Men have been some of my favorite characters since I was a child. I loved watching X-Men (The Animated) series and seeing the relationship between Cyclops and Wolverine. The only character on the Avengers that I was familiar with was Captain America and I mostly liked him because of what he stood for. As for the rest of the Avengers team, I had no clue who they were or what they were about, but I had this feeling from the beginning that I wanted them to win. I was afraid that Wolverine would side with the X-Men and I was happy to see that my favorite Marvel character would be on the team I wanted to root for.
